About this wine

Les Délys lies within the Corcelette area, on deep granitic sands, and Bouland’s “Vigne de 1926” bottling comes from centenarian bush vines that naturally give tiny yields. In 2024 the wine is intensely perfumed, with black cherry, blueberry and wild strawberry layered over violets, rose and subtle herbal spice. The palate is full-bodied yet incredibly refined: a seamless, velvety texture, concentrated fruit, vibrant mineral freshness and long, finely woven tannins. It’s a Morgon that behaves like top cru Burgundy and will reward extended cellaring, while already captivating in its youth with decanting. Think roast lamb, pigeon, venison or truffle-infused dishes.

Tasting Note

Regional notes describe 2024 Les Délys as mineral, floral and deeply fruited, with silky texture and serious structure: black and blue berries, hints of licorice and chocolate spice, lifted violet and rose, and a long, sapid, stony finish. The overall impression is of a powerful but finely chiseled Morgon with excellent ageing potential.

Daniel Bouland

A reference point for serious Beaujolais. Daniel Bouland crafts deeply fruited, structured Gamay from excellent old-vine parcels in Morgon and Chiroubles. Fermentation is traditional, oak is neutral, and purity is the priority. The wines are vibrant, layered, and capable of aging. Proof that Beaujolais can be both joyful and profound.

Vinification

Fruit from extremely old vines (planted 1926) is hand-harvested, fermented as whole clusters with native yeasts in concrete vats with gentle pump-overs, then aged in large seasoned foudres and bottled without filtration.
